ADHD
Practical, supportive therapy for children, teens, and adults with ADHD
ADHD can impact focus, organization, motivation, emotional regulation, relationships, and self-esteem.

build skills for daily life—at school, at work, and at home.
Serving children, teens, and adults. Parenting support available.
How ADHD can show up in everyday life
ADHD isn’t just “being distracted.” Many people with ADHD work incredibly hard to keep up—often feeling overwhelmed, behind,
or misunderstood. ADHD can affect attention, impulse control, and activity levels, and it can also influence mood, confidence,
and relationships.
Common challenges for kids & teens
- Trouble starting or finishing homework
- Forgetfulness, losing items, messy backpacks/rooms
- Impulsivity, blurting out, difficulty waiting turns
- Emotional outbursts, frustration tolerance issues
- School stress, low confidence, frequent “in trouble” feelings
- Friendship challenges or social misunderstandings
Common challenges for adults
- Chronic procrastination or difficulty prioritizing
- Time blindness, lateness, missed deadlines
- Disorganization at home or work
- Difficulty following through on routines or goals
- Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in shame cycles
- Relationship tension related to communication or responsibilities
Many people with ADHD also experience anxiety, depression, learning differences, or sleep challenges. We’ll look at the whole
picture—not just symptoms.
Our approach to ADHD therapy
ADHD therapy is most effective when it’s skill-based, strengths-focused, and tailored to real life. We collaborate with you
to identify what’s getting in the way and build tools that are realistic, repeatable, and supportive of your goals.
Evidence-based strategies
We use practical, research-informed methods (such as CBT-based skills, behavioral strategies, and executive functioning
supports) to help improve focus, follow-through, and emotional regulation.
Executive functioning support
We help with planning, organization, task initiation, time management, and building routines—without relying on
“just try harder” advice.
Strengths-based care
ADHD often comes with creativity, humor, energy, and big-picture thinking. Therapy can help you harness strengths while
reducing stress and self-criticism.

Support for parents & families
Parenting a child with ADHD can be exhausting—especially when everyone is doing their best and still feeling stuck.
We offer parent support that focuses on practical tools, consistent strategies, and improving connection at home.
Parent coaching can help with:

We collaborate when appropriate
With your permission, we can coordinate with other supports (such as schools and pediatric providers) to help keep care
consistent and aligned with your goals.
Therapy does not replace medical advice. If medication is part of your ADHD plan, we’re happy to support skill-building
and coping alongside it.
What to expect in your first sessions
1) Understand what’s happening
We talk through challenges, strengths, daily routines, and stress points—then identify patterns that keep things stuck.
2) Set clear goals
Together, we define what “better” looks like—such as improved follow-through, fewer meltdowns, better grades, or less
overwhelm at work.
3) Build a plan you can use
You’ll leave sessions with practical strategies to try right away—plus adjustments over time so the plan fits your life.
Ready for support that actually helps?
You don’t have to do ADHD alone. We’re here to help you build skills, reduce stress, and feel more in control—step by step.
ADHD Therapy FAQs
Do you work with children, teens, and adults?
Yes. We provide ADHD therapy for children, teens, and adults, and we can include parent support when it’s helpful for a child
or teen’s progress.
Does therapy help if I’m already taking ADHD medication?
Yes. Many people find the best results come from combining skill-building and coping strategies with any medical supports
recommended by their prescriber. Therapy can help with routines, organization, emotional regulation, and relationships.
What approaches do you use for ADHD?
We use evidence-based, practical strategies that may include CBT-based skills, behavior supports, executive functioning tools,
emotional regulation strategies, and parent coaching—tailored to the client’s age, needs, and goals.
How long does ADHD therapy usually take?
It depends on your goals and what’s going on. Some people benefit from short-term, focused skill-building, while others prefer
ongoing support to manage stress, transitions, and long-term habits.
How do I know if it’s ADHD or anxiety?
ADHD and anxiety often overlap and can look similar (difficulty focusing, restlessness, overwhelm). In therapy we explore
patterns, triggers, and history to clarify what’s driving symptoms and to choose the most helpful strategies.
Do you provide ADHD evaluations or testing?
